Same for old Dell, the $2000 laptop can be grabbed at $300 after 3 years, this is really cool. I installed Linux on mine too of course.

nasm? the x86 assembler from the 90s?

True, and Alpha are even worst, most of them never touched a real keyboard, only use 2 thumbs on a phone. Don’t tell them about windows (or/mac/linux) or what is a UI or how to use a mouse and navigate in a OS, they don’t get double click or right click, resize a window, minimize a window (OMG THE WINDOW IS GONE!!!) it’s impressive.

I have seen a lot of late Z/early Alpha who cannot make some special characters on a keyboard like " or $ or even worst using AltCar. Using Word to write a letter, using keyboard shortcuts, etc. they are completely clueless with computers.

yup, MAGAt will certainly harass him

What is completely incredible, is that there is some simple embedded devices, be it a thermostat, dishwasher, etc, that sold thousands/millions of units, and the firmware is done by one guy, a simple developer, and when it works, it is not touched again.

Have you seen Musk balancing a fork and a spoon, mesmerizing! People around him were like at a “Musk Got Talent” show!

I worked on an embedded product, on prototype there were pullup resistors on the RX/TX lines we used to plug a USB FTDI to do some debug. At manufacture they removed them, it created a floating RX that sometimes injected character that broke uboot…

Yes, especially China, they have “secret police stations” around the world, lot in Canada, where they track and harass Chinese citizens who have immigrated to Canada. It is well documented.

You mean, you cannot read cursive? I’m not even english native speaker and can read this easily, interesting

EDIT: ok I’m not english native, I didn’t want to offense anyone, I’m just an old coot who learnt cursive and only cursive at school in the 70s. I don’t know how to write with “block letters”

It’s 120V and 240V
